From my Facebook announcement of the new position:

Scott MerrickThat's done. Resigned from USN, accepted the new MNPS "Virtual Learning Curriculum Specialist" position, paperwork at Metro tomorrow. Change is in the air. I largely owe my PLN and all my colleagues for this exciting new opportunity to build a virtual school like no other. On we go.

Josh Scouten Congratulations Scott!! I didn't realize the what the big smile on your face was indicating when I saw you in the hall today. You will be missed but know you will do some amazing things in your new role. Good luck!!

Scott Merrick Michelle I have to say that the hardest factor in the decision was losing the chance to be with "my" children. It still is, and is likely to remain so. Tell Elise I'll be helping to make Nashville a better place by helping other kids to better learning. I know that won't make up for my absence :) but it may help. And tell her to "Be Good and Have Fun."

About Me

I really do consider myself as much of a learner as a teacher. Partly that's because my main professional interest is educational technology, and I've been lucky enough to fall in with some movers and shakers in that arena, many of whom I consider friends, all of whom I consider colleagues.
